Extra terrestrial Biological Entities is the debut studio album of the Japanese J-pop band Egoist, released on September 19, 2012 by Sony Music. The album contains 12 music tracks written by Ryo of Supercell and sung by Chelly, who also wrote the lyrics for the song "LoveStruck". Two of the tracks were previously released on two of Egoist's singles. Two different editions of the album were released: a regular CD version and a CD+DVD limited edition. Extra terrestrial Biological Entities peaked at No. 9 on the Japanese Oricon weekly albums chart.
Three of the songs were used as theme songs for various media: "Departures (Anata ni Okuru Ai no Uta)" and "The Everlasting Guilty Crown" were used as theme songs for the 2011 anime television series Guilty Crown, and "Planetes" was used as the ending theme to the original video animation included with the visual novel Guilty Crown: Lost Christmas.
From May 25 to June 19, 2011, Ryo of Supercell held auditions for the vocalist on the band's third album Zigaexperientia (2013). While not chosen to sing for Supercell, then 17-year-old female singer Chelly was selected out of about 2,000 candidates to sing songs for the 2011 anime television series Guilty Crown under the name Egoist, which is a fictional band featured in the series. Additionally, Chelly sings under the persona of the band's vocalist Inori Yuzuriha. At the time of the auditions, Ryo had already written "Departures (Anata ni Okuru Ai no Uta)" for Guilty Crown and was in search of a vocalist for the song. During the final audition, all of the candidates sang the song together, but according to Ryo, Chelly was the only one who fit the song perfectly. The album's title is meant to reflect Inori's character, including how her initial concept was based on a goldfish. The album's cover art is by Redjuice and shows Inori in a blue dress sitting down and holding a ball of red yarn; two goldfish are also depicted next to her.
